UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4000
(09/07/2012) Parked when running 35 years ago. This is a very stock jeep with the belt pulley PTO. It also comes with a bunch of new parts. However, it is also a rusty jeep that hasn’t moved in three decades.
“1952 CJ3A Willys Jeep
This Jeep is about as original and complete as you will find. I bought it from the family that bought it new. It was mainly used for farm use and has been sitting for 35 years. as a result it only has 36,000 miles on it. It has the flat head four cylinder “Go Devil” motor that is still a 6 volt electric system. two speed transfer case and three speed manual transmission. This Jeep was also equipped with the factory optional rear PTO system. The Jeep has never been restored or modified. It has a lot of parts with it you almost never find. seat frames, frame for the soft top, door frames, mirrors, under seat tool box with the willys stamped lid. I have the optional under door side steps, and the snap on grill screen, to keep weeds out of the radiator while mowing. The crown jewel piece I have is the adator that allows you to run belt driven items, like a grits or saw mill with the PTO. I even have the original owners manual for it. I have not tried to start the motor, It ran and drove before it was set up. but the last time it was started was 35 years ago. The only thing I have done is knocked off some of the surface rust and put them areas in primer just to persevere it, and that is all I have been doing too it. I have a new baby on the way so I not going to have the time to continue working on it in the near future, and for a while. and would rather not see it sit. I was planing on fully bringing this Jeep back and keeping it as a result I have bought up quite a few spare parts. I have an flathead engine a frame with front and rear axles, extra generator, carburetor, starter, manifolds, steering column, hood, front grill, hubs, four extra stock rims and other misc things. Over a grand in spare parts alone. Price for everything is $4000″
piece of crap
The owner “put them areas in primer just to persevere it”? The rust appears to be persevering just fine without the sellers help but this Jeep must be sold because “I have a new baby on the way”. Is it possible to get an old baby for a cheaper price so the owner wouldn’t have to sell this project Jeep?
I await more information.
